Dual SIM Moto G headed to Australia

The Moto G was announced as a phone that would come in both single and dual SIM variants, but it’s only been the single SIM model that’s been available for purchase since launch. That could change soon, at least in Australia, as the country’s version of the Motorola website now lists the dual SIM version of the Moto G. Retailers and carriers don’t seem to offering the dual SIM Moto G yet, but it’s an indication of its impending release – Motorola had announced that the phone would be arriving in a dual SIM variant in markets like India in January, and it looks like the Google-owned company has managed to stick to that schedule.

As expected, the addition of a SIM slot hasn’t changed anything in terms of hardware – there’s a 4.5-inch 720p display, 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor, 1GB of RAM, a 5-megapixel rear camera, 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera, 8GB of storage, and a 2070 mAh battery. Despite a few months having passed since the Moto G was launched, the dual SIM variant still runs on Android 4.3 out of the box, though it will be upgradeable to Android 4.4 KitKat as expected.
